I'm talking about GamePass, not Starfield. Gamepass only works on Microsoft OSes AFAIK, so you won't be able to use it on anything it doesn't control (i.e. macOS or Linux).

That's fun. God I hate proprietary tech

Like it's not enough to lock me into a service by making a good service that I forget how expensive it is, instead they got to strangle you on the device side.

Ikr? That's one reason why I like Netflix. I don't like the DRM, but they at least do a good job ensuring it works pretty much everywhere.
